I trained for one hike by going up (and down) the stairs to the 13th floor in our apartment building 10 times with 25kg backpack every day for a few days. That's like 500m of gain. Just 18 times this and I would be on top of Everest



13th floor * 10 times * 18 repetitions…

Yes, just a simple climb up 2340 stories and you’ll have climbed an Everest equivalent.

By the way, you’d still be quite a bit short if your building’s stories were a more average 3m tall.
